Had enough of this !!!!
Here I am fighting my thoughts of harm everyday. Struggling to keep a roof over my head.
I think I am getting a little breather in that I received what was termed an ExGratia paymnet from my ex employers Workers Comp Insurerer of what now seems a pitance of $10K.
Only to find out now that $1,000 had to go to Medicare to cover some of the past Mental Health visits to GP's. So now I have $9K.
Welll that will just cover the cost of getting my furniture back from Kununurra. Ok so at least I have that covered but now $0. Only to find out Centrelink now want to treat that asIncome and stop my Newstart allowance until I use that up. Use it up I already have.
I went to Kununurra to get work instead of being on the dole. I have old fashioned values for that. It ruined me, my marriage and my future. I feel so useless and worthless, yet I tried so hard.
Now it seems I have nothing. No friends, No Wife, No job, Lost my work skills to much pressure as an accountant. To old and absolutely no drive left. Im empty and I just feel all I am getting is kicked.
Now our Mental Health Centre has lost my Psychologist so told to see GP. But I am also told Medicare want me to pay for that because of the above payment.
I give up !!!!
